Actually, You FAIL!!! Did I say once in my post "Ppl in this thread"??
I'm talking about in general :dickhead: the comments on blog sites & music sites are saying this song is "too urban" "we wanted a pop dance track"

Now go sit in the corner & fold your hands :dickhead:
GOODNIGHT!!!

And when she makes that popdance track people complain about her being too white

[spc08]

Disappointed this is a Rihanna song & its is slightly forgettable, hell the wait is ova snippet is more appealing!!

But the emotions & the mood of the song plays in her advantage...

Yahhh what I tell you!!

Why every new single topic always turns into a fight?

Yeah same I think Rihanna def put herself on a whole other level higher with this song. GGGB put her a higher level and RR def puts her on an even higher level. She is amazing!

anybody referring to this song as urban would have to be brain dead

Yeah calling me a liar is great way to admit that you tried & failed.
That's what you get for beating your fingers on the keyboard before knowing what you were talking about. NOT once did I say ppl in this thread. I refuse to get this thread closed & get a warning point for arguing with a "person" like you.


Some ppl don't know the different musical genres they only think dance songs are pop songs

[inspiration4]

^^^^lmao

i just hate hearing stupid **** that some of the people on this site already post, so it seemd kinda messy to bring in garbage from other sites and contaminate this thread, when it was staying on track

****KING AMAZING! Definitely her best ballad.

And it's a very smart move to release a song like this first because it stands out more and makes more of a STATEMENT than a simple catchy uptempo would.

From Entertainment Weekly:

Rihanna's dark, daring new single: Hear 'Russian Roulette' now
by Simon Vozick-Levinson
Categories: News, Rihanna

Rihanna debuted her brand-new single “Russian Roulette” right on time this morning at 11:23 AM Eastern via her official website. Written and produced by labelmate Ne-Yo, “Russian Roulette” is the first single from Nov. 23’s Rated R.

The midtempo tune opens with a screaming processed-guitar solo that segues into an eerie-sexy bass rumble, accompanied by some unsettling imagery: “Take a breath, take it deep/’Calm yourself,’ he says to me/’If you play, you play for keeps/Take the gun and count to three.’” Soon thereafter comes the big pull-out-the-stops hook: “And you can see my heart beating/You can see it through my chest/I’m terrified but I’m not leaving.” The music ends dramatically with a single gunshot.

Guns, fear, a man pushing a woman to play a dangerous game — this is risque subject matter for any pop single. It’s even more daring for Rihanna right now, given her very public experience as a victim of violence earlier this year. (This is her first solo release since that February incident.) After a few listens, I think those risks absolutely pay off. Rihanna is in fine vocal form throughout, and Ne-Yo’s songwriting is economical and evocative per usual. I have a feeling “Russian Roulette” is a single we’re all going to be hearing a lot of in the coming months.

Stream it at rihannanow.com or check out a fan YouTube clip after the jump, then tell us: How do you like Rihanna’s new sound? Will you be playing “Russian Roulette”?

I liked it.
Its not what someone would expect as a monster single but its a beautiful song and very enjoyable.
Kudos for her.

[inspiration4]

i haVE A feeling this song will be HUUGE when the emotions of her voice and the lyrics are able to resonate with people

it feels as though your actually watching someone be taking advantage of right before your eyes, but you cant stop it, and you know theres no turning back for the victim

so powerful

[AveMaria15]

Ok NOW I ****ing love it!! After hearing her say "So just pull the trigger...." then she pants & the gun goes off

[V3$$3L.]

SONGS LIKE THIS STAND THE TEST OF TIME.

[Brooke-lynn]

I wanna an up-tempo song but this will do until she release the next single

Question: Is she releasing 2 Singles at the same time?

OMG EPIC!! i got shivers.... omg rihanna sounds amazing. yes lord I love it

[RnBsupastar09]

"Russion Roulette" is an amazingly great song. I love that this is her first time releasing a ballad like this. Because it gets people in the mood and hyped for a sure fire club banger. This will be top 5, i pray #1. I love this song and im on my second listen. Some of you are mad that its a slow ballad but her vocals are so much better, the lyrics are great, ugh im shivering so much
